A story from Home Depot yesterday:

A group of young guys approach me from the pluming department.

Guy: We're looking for a female-female plumbing connector. Caan you help us find one?

Me: Sorry, I don't work in Plumbing. Let me call someone for you.
as I walk away, one of the other guys walks up behind me asking about something

Guy 2: One more thing. Do you know where the strapping tape is?

Me: Strapping tape? Umm... I'm not sure, maybe I know it by a different name. What do you need it for?

Guy 2: .... Do you really want to know what we're using it for? *he gets a grin on his face*

Me: Sure, try me.

Guy 2: we're making sparkler bombs.

Me: OH! Okay! You need high strength tape with the strong fiber reinforcement. That's gonna be in the paint department, above the moving tape, just over from the duct tape.
